z1l0g | hola | 00:37 |
---|---|---|
z1l0g | Anyone here still using Lucid? | 00:37 |
tgm4883 | I do in some places | 00:40 |
tgm4883 | on my mythtv backend and my server | 00:40 |
z1l0g | ah okay. I just ran system update and apparently it uninstalled openoffice. | 00:42 |
z1l0g | and it doesn't seem to want me to re-install it :/ | 00:43 |
tgm4883 | z1l0g, did it install libreoffice? | 00:43 |
z1l0g | you're probably not having this issue on your servers ;) | 00:43 |
tgm4883 | z1l0g, I don't have that on my servers | 00:44 |
z1l0g | no, didn't install LibreOffice. | 00:44 |
tgm4883 | hmm | 00:44 |
tgm4883 | sec | 00:44 |
z1l0g | it's odd since ubuntu states that it was going to provide critical updates to OOo until april 2013 | 00:45 |
tgm4883 | do you have any PPA's installed? | 00:45 |
z1l0g | yes, there are PPAs for Libreoffice and Firefox | 00:45 |
tgm4883 | well, why are you trying to install openoffice if you have the libreoffice PPA? | 00:46 |
z1l0g | er, well there's a "Firefox Stable Channel Packages" entry in the Software Center panel | 00:47 |
tgm4883 | ok, so what happens if you try to install openoffice? | 00:47 |
z1l0g | I think I may have added that in preparation but never tried to install LibreOffice | 00:48 |
tgm4883 | honestly, I'd just install libreoffice rather than figure out why openoffice won't install | 00:48 |
z1l0g | I get a "Package dependencies cannot be resolved" error | 00:49 |
z1l0g | yeah, for me it doesn't matter. I support others who are actively using OOo though and I'm getting questions as to why it's suddenly missing | 00:50 |
tgm4883 | z1l0g, don't do a partial upgrade | 00:50 |
tgm4883 | then it won't be missing | 00:50 |
tgm4883 | but if you want to troubleshoot it, try installing it from the command line and see what it can't resolve | 00:51 |
z1l0g | oh, maybe that's what happened. I saw something about "Partial upgrade" pop up | 00:51 |
tgm4883 | yea, don't do partial upgrades unless you're absolutely sure you know what you're doing | 00:51 |
z1l0g | tried using apt-get install and it will mention various depencancies that are needed and _won't_ be installed... | 00:52 |
tgm4883 | z1l0g, pastebin the output | 00:52 |
z1l0g | heh, well it sure wasn't presented as a "this can ferk up your system" option :/ | 00:52 |
z1l0g | no doubt there's gonna be a bunch more posts come Monday | 00:53 |
z1l0g | jus a sec | 00:53 |
tgm4883 | z1l0g, honestly, it was probably caused by your PPA's | 00:54 |
z1l0g | http://pastebin.com/xQY9fnh2 | 00:55 |
z1l0g | so, do I uninstall the LibreOffice PPA? | 00:55 |
tgm4883 | z1l0g, hmm, looks like it should be fine | 00:58 |
tgm4883 | have you done an 'apt-get update'? | 00:58 |
z1l0g | yes | 00:58 |
z1l0g | I'm fine with removing the LibreOffice PPA, just not sure how | 00:59 |
tgm4883 | apt-add-repository -r <ppaname> | 01:00 |
z1l0g | okay, thanks. I'll try that to see if it fixes things | 01:01 |
z1l0g | okay, removed it from the synaptic package manager and clicked Reload. apt-get install openoffice.org still fails; even trying to install the base pkg fails | 01:10 |
z1l0g | oh, ran apt-get update too | 01:10 |
z1l0g | guess there's no "revert to previous state' in ubuntu eh? | 01:11 |
z1l0g | is there a way to rebuild the "installed pkgs" DB? It seems to think it's installed still but all the OOo binaries are missing | 01:16 |
* z1l0g guesses he has asked too many questions ;) | 01:18 | |
z1l0g | maybe I drag this thing sown to tomorrow's PLUG clinic | 01:18 |
z1l0g | thanks | 01:19 |
